NEW YORK, April ia Philadel-
phia special to the Post says: After O
thorough investigation OF the pub
lished reports that during this last two
years the train men on single divis-
lon Of the Pennsylvania railroad sys.
tenn have been permitted 10 rob pack
ages to the extent OF $500 900, the
Pennsylvania railroad officials have
discovered that such reports are great.
ly exaggerated. The detectives, It
eeems, have been endeavofing to mag
nifty the value OF their services. There
has been, II 10 admitte d, some petty
thievins by train hands on the Pitts
burg division Of the Pittsburg, Cincin-
natl and st. Louis railroad going on
for some time, but 1t has consisted
principally Of such things as pair OF
shoes, "a coat. q box OF cigars I'D tobacco
distracted from ca o., amounting in
the aggreg gate to thousands of dollars
where hundreds OF thousands have
been named.
A Pennsylvania railroad official to-
day said: IT have official figures here
to show that the loss through damage
and theft to freight during 1855 on the
line between Pittsburg and Columbus
amounted to only SIG, 4s8 %, and all OF
these claims have already been set'
tied"
The exact figures from the Pan
handle division have not been secured,
but enough has been ascertai,ed to
show that the losses there were no
greater by comparison than on the
other divisions.
